Answer:

Haiti plays against Italy and it is the first time he feels the connection to Haiti and he is for the first time proud of being Haitian.

Explanation:

"Bonee Annee" is a personal essay written by Jean-Pierre Benoit. It tells us a story about a Haitian family that moves from Haiti to the United States because their country is run by a dictator Papa Doc. The author moves to USA at a very young age, so he has no special connection to any of the two countries. He lives in America doing all what an average person does there, but also he experiences Haitian culture while living with his family who kept Haitian way of living. After Papa Doc and then his son Bebe Doc left the country, the family returns to Haiti, but the author is not happy about it because he is used to living in America, he has friends, school and all.

To get back to the question, the World Cup soccer match shown at Madison Square Garden is important to the author because his home country played against Italy and for the first time he felt the connection to his origin and pride of being Haitian.

Answer:

Jess Bhamra is an 18-year old girl who is crazy about football but is prohibited from playing it due to being born into a traditional indian family which forbids girls from such activities. Jules Paxton is another 18 year old who is born in an English family. One day, they cross paths and Jules gets to know about Jess' talent in football. She invites Jess to a football team for women, coached by Joe. Seeing her talent, Jess gets accepted into the team. However, Jess' parents get to know about her playing football behind their backs. They forced her to stop playing and later, the football team gets into an important final. Joe requests Mr. Bhamra to let Jess play but was denied since it was on the same day as Jess' sister's wedding. Thankfully, Jess was allowed to take part in the competition halfway through the wedding. Unfortunately, when she arrived, their team was on the losing end. The scores were 0-1 and then 1-1. When there came a free kick, Jess bent the ball around the other players and lead her team to victory. A University in California offered soccer scholarships to Jess and Jules considering their outstanding performance and invites them to the University. Jess convinced her parents to let her go abroad and she takes off with Jules. They send team photos to their families now and then.

<u>Answer:</u>

The word, if used to replace "quiet," in the given sentence "Then the people went to their beds, and the camp was quiet." would give this sentence a more negative tone is (B) Stifled.

"Then the people went to their beds, and the camp was <u>stifled</u>."

<u>Explanation:</u>

The word "Quiet" literally denotes a place which is void of noise. Here, in the given sentence, when the people who used to camp went back to bed, one should expect a calm and a peaceful atmosphere. During the bed time, no one will make such loud noises which will distract the people in the environment as everyone tend to take rest during night. The word "Quiet" denotes that type of environment too.

The word "Silent" is similar in meaning to the word "Quiet" and it generates a positive tone too. The word "Still" denotes the environment which is undisturbed by any external factors. Hence, the word "Still" also projects the exact nature of the environment. If we use the word "Stifled" in the above sentence, it refers to the environment which is generally constrained from doing something i.e., enforcing an order to do something. Here, the word "Stifled" creates a negative tone when replaced in the given sentence.
